Nanodust and nanometer-sized structures are important components of
many objects in space. Nanodust is observed in evolved stars, young
stellar objects, protoplanetary disks, and dust debris disks.
Within the solar system, nanodust is observed with in-situ
experiments from spacecraft. Nanometer-sized substructures are
found in the collected cometary and interplanetary dust particles
and in meteorites. Understanding the growth and destruction of
dust, its internal evolution, as well as the optical properties and
the detection of nanoparticles is of fundamental importance for
astrophysical research. This book provides a focused description of
the current state of research and experimental results concerning
nanodust in the solar system. It addresses three major questions:
What is nanodust? How was it discovered in the solar system? And
how do we interpret the observations? The book serves as a
self-contained reference work for space researchers and provides
solid information on nanodust in cosmic environments for
researchers working in astrophysics or in other fields of physics.
